The wrong transmigrator assigned by the system

The moment it was engulfed by its own flames, the black dragon roared merrily, as if it had successfully pulled off a prank, laughing heartily.

But at that moment, a streak of azure energy suddenly sliced ​​through its dragon flames, revealing a scene that shocked it greatly!

The little Dark Elf girl, who was engulfed in flames, was actually rescued by two humans. She wasn't burned at all by the flames and didn't have a single scratch on her body!

This was the greatest insult to it, so the black dragon roared and swore to burn the two humans who had insulted it to ashes.

But at that moment, an aura suddenly erupted from the two humans, an aura that even it couldn't help but feel uneasy about.

"I wonder what your soul tastes like, Black Dragon..."

Chapter Nine - Slaying the Dragon

Upon hearing Liu Ming's joking remark, the black dragon roared in fury, flapped its giant wings, and pounced on Liu Ming.

"Heh!" Seeing the black dragon rushing towards him, Liu Ming couldn't help but sneer. In the instant the black dragon pounced, he gently shook the holy bell in his hand, and amidst the crisp sound of the bell, he grasped a crimson lightning spear in his hand!

"Roar~!!" As it approached Liu Ming, the black dragon opened its mouth wide, preparing to spew out dragon fire and strike Liu Ming.

However, in that instant, Liu Ming threw the Sunlight Spear in his hand, shooting it directly into the black dragon's mouth as it was about to spew out dragonfire. The flames that had just burst out of its throat were blocked in the black dragon's belly, severely injuring the black dragon's throat, which was not protected by dragon scales.

Blood gushed from the black dragon's mouth the instant the Sunlight Spear struck it.

The black dragon let out a miserable cry, then flapped its giant wings and took off into the air, preparing to escape from here.

The Sun Spear is a miracle used to slay dragons. As a dragon, after being struck by it, it knew it was its nemesis, and therefore it was unwilling to continue fighting Liu Ming. Even if it could kill Liu Ming by killing itself, it would be severely wounded and ultimately be defeated by the Dark Elf army. So it would never do something so foolish!

But in that instant, Liu Ming suddenly unleashed his power, relying on his speed and strength to step onto the walls of the tall buildings on the street, flip over, and leap directly onto the black dragon's tail.

Using magic to attach himself to the black dragon's scales, Liu Ming condensed a pale blue magic sword with the Aries Holy Staff. As he ran toward the black dragon's powerful head, he slashed the dragon's scales with the magic sword, which resembled bright yet cold moonlight.

The crimson power emanating from the azure magic sword left a trail of crimson crystals on the scales it sliced ​​across, assimilating and brittled the black dragon's scales. As the crystals shattered, the dragon's blood spilled onto the streets.

Upon witnessing this scene, Aseria and the envoy, the little girl rescued by Lu Ming and Lothric, and all the Dark elves in the capital who could see Lu Ming's battle with the black dragon were all speechless with shock.

In their eyes, the black dragon was an unimaginably powerful being. They couldn't imagine who could defeat the black dragon, which was among the strongest of the dragons, nor could they imagine that the black dragon would be cut into this state by a mage with a magic sword.

The black dragon, its scales shattering along with the crystals, was in unbearable pain and roared in pain. It tried to shake off Liu Ming, but no matter how it tumbled and plummeted through the air, or performed freefall maneuvers, it could not shake Liu Ming off.

It didn't know that Liu Ming wasn't actually standing on its body, but on a gravitational field he created with his own magic. It had nothing to do with it; the gravitational field held Liu Ming tightly against its back, not the earth's gravity. So everything it did was in vain.

Moving swiftly on the black dragon's back, Liu Ming dragged the Aries Holy Staff and used the magic sword to carve deep wounds on the black dragon's body. At the same time, he reached the black dragon's neck, raised the Aries Holy Staff high, and began to increase the output of magic power, compressing a large amount of magic power into the magic sword, making the magic sword into a deep red solid crystal sword!

The instant the crystal sword was formed, a beam of sunlight pierced through the thick clouds and shone on the crystal sword, making it radiate an ominous moonlight in the sky, like a scarlet crescent moon.

"Moonlight Torrent!" Liu Ming whispered, and the crystal sword, radiating an ominous scarlet glow, struck the black dragon's nape with a single swing. A terrifying energy surged from the crystal sword, slicing open the black dragon's nape in one blow!

Some of the energy spilled out and landed in an area that had already been burned by the black dragon's flames, tearing the earth apart.

"Roar~!!!!" The black dragon, whose spine had been severed from the back of its neck by the crystal sword, let out a roar that sounded like both anger and sorrow as it slowly fell from the sky and the clouds.

However, Liu Ming knew that this attack had only severely injured the black dragon, not completely rendered it incapable of fighting. Once he and the black dragon crashed to the ground, he would have no choice but to engage in a direct battle. Therefore, in order to kill the black dragon more quickly, Liu Ming shook the Bell of Hope in his hand as they fell together, unleashing a massive pillar of lightning that struck the black dragon's spine.

Lightning exploded in the sky, severing the black dragon's head from its body in a single strike.

With two deafening roars, crimson rain fell from above, pressing down the dust kicked up when the behemoth landed, revealing the corpse of the dead black dragon and Liu Ming standing on its back.

She lightly leaped down from the black dragon's corpse, walked step by step to the front of the black dragon's head, placed her hand on the black dragon's head, and soon, a handful of black dragon soul, like purple flames, was extracted from the black dragon's corpse by Liu Ming using Leila's power and put into her phone.

At that moment, a group of soldiers led by a Dark Elf priestess who looked to be in her thirties or forties ran over from a distance and surrounded Liu Ming.

"Human! You have desecrated this ancient land by letting the sunlight shine on the capital! And I, Merlin Chimera, as the priestess of the Shadow Dragon King, will execute you here!!" The priestess ignored the worshipful looks of the other Dark Elves towards Liu Ming and resolutely uttered words that none of the Dark Elves could believe.

Liu Ming turned his head and glanced at the mature, beautiful, but somewhat foolish priestess. He couldn't help but chuckle and asked, "You mean I should ignore what this black dragon has done in your Dark Elf capital?"

Before the priestess could speak, the other Dark Elves, who had come to see the hero who slew the dragon after witnessing its death, began to protest after hearing their conversation. In their view, Lu Ming was the hero who had dealt with the rampaging black dragon, and the punishment should not be imposed on the Dark Elves who had saved them.

Most importantly, the Priestess is a priestess of the Shadow Dragon King, and the Shadow Dragon King's kin are the ancestors of the Black Dragons—the Shadow Dragons! Therefore, the Priestess's words didn't cause Liu Ming any trouble; instead, they brought her considerable trouble, especially in Loki's Darkea Empire, which had just been ravaged by the Black Dragon.

"Damn it!" Hearing the doubts around her, the priestess trembled with anger, but she had no way to order the soldiers she had brought to rush up and forcibly kill Liu Ming.

Leaving aside whether they could defeat Liu Ming, the Dark Elves surrounding them alone would be enough to give them a hard time. Therefore, they had no choice but to give up; otherwise, before she could even take action against the humans who allowed sunlight to appear in the imperial capital, Loki City, she herself would be punished by the enraged populace.

"You damned human, just you wait! I'll make sure you, who have blasphemed the will of our Shadow Dragon King, are punished!" Amid the protests of the Dark Elves around her, the Priestess threw down a few harsh words and left with her soldiers.

Watching the priestess storm off in a huff, Liu Ming was utterly bewildered. He couldn't understand what the priestess had come for. Moreover, why should the Dark Elf female soldiers, as soldiers of the Dark Elf Empire's capital, obey that priestess? Most importantly, why hadn't a single Dark Elf soldier confronted the black dragon before Liu Ming dealt with it, allowing it to wreak havoc throughout the city...?

Soon, the Chimera and his group arrived. Seeing that Liu Ming had gained the support of the people of Loki, the capital, for ridding the people of evil, the envoy immediately seized the opportunity to announce to the people that Liu Ming and Lothric were people "she" had invited from the Kingdom of Miracaissa to deal with the wandering spirits and the curse of the undead. This earned him some support and praise from the people, making Liu Ming and Lothric want to complain. At a time like this, the envoy was still thinking about gaining the support of the people in exchange for a chance to be promoted.

Perhaps sensing that Miracaissa was somewhat speechless about his actions, the envoy quickly stopped interacting with the people of the capital and went to Liu Ming, saying, "Thank you very much for killing this black dragon that had gone mad from consuming too many wandering souls. I will definitely speak on your behalf to Her Majesty the Queen!"

"No need for praise. I'm not one of Darkea's people, and your empire can't reward me with anything. Besides, I came here to help. When I saw this black dragon go mad, I killed it for safety reasons. It's nothing serious. But how did you know it went mad from eating too many wandering souls?"

"On the way, we encountered some Dark Elves from the Royal Guard, and that's how we learned about it."

"So, the army didn't participate in the operation against the Black Dragon?" Hearing the envoy mention the royal guard protecting the Empress rather than ordinary soldiers, Liu Ming was taken aback for a moment, then asked.

"Um... that's right..." Perhaps because the matter was so embarrassing, the envoy kept looking away from Liu Ming while answering, not daring to meet his gaze.

"Huh? What are you Dark Elf playing at?! In this situation, aren't you going to send out the army?!" Upon hearing this, Lu Ming and Lothric exclaimed angrily in unison.

"Well, for the past few decades, the military in the capital has been controlled by the priests..."

"I think you're hopeless!" Upon hearing this, Liu Ming said speechlessly.

Lothric sighed and asked the envoy, "So, are you planning to have us negotiate with the priests to hand over the army to you?"

"No, no, no! We'll handle this ourselves! I guarantee that the Imperial Army will be able to cooperate with you next time the wandering spirits appear!" Upon hearing Lothric's somewhat pessimistic question, the envoy immediately shook his hands vigorously and said.

"Really?"

"Maybe..."

-----------------------------------

At night, Liu Ming followed Chimera to the church temple where the priests of the capital resided.

Contrary to what the envoy said, after Lu Ming and Lothric met with the Queen of Darkea, and discussed future cooperation plans with the Darkea elves in the military and the ministers who communicated with the priests, they learned that the military was beyond their capabilities!

Although the wandering spirits were dealt with by the black dragon summoned by the priests of the Shadow Church, and the mad black dragon was hunted down by Liu Ming, who knows when the wandering spirits will suddenly reappear and attack Darkea's capital?

So, there was no other way but for Lu Ming and Lothric to have one communicate with the priests and the other train some of the Dark Elf royal guards to deal with any emergencies.

Standing at the entrance of the church temple where the priests resided, Liu Ming glanced at the Chimera with some unease and said, "Are you sure you can really persuade them? I don't want to be killed by a bunch of priests for some crime of causing the sunlight to appear!"

"Don't worry! Although I didn't come from here, I was a priest before, so I believe they will forgive you!" Turning around, Chimera puffed out her not-so-large chest and said to Liu Ming with a 'you can trust me!' expression.

However, Liu Ming glanced at the soldiers surrounding him and asked somewhat speechlessly, "Are you sure?"

"Uh..." Chimera glanced at the Dark Elf soldiers surrounding her and Lu Ming, feeling a little embarrassed and unsure of what to say.

Seeing this, Liu Ming sighed and said to the soldiers, "I'm here to see High Priestess Jamila Chiramila. Please help me announce her arrival."

Just then, the priest whom Liu Ming had encountered before suddenly emerged from the church temple, sneered, and said, "You want to see the High Priest? Dream on! Your sin of letting sunlight into Loki City today has not yet been punished, and now you want to see him as a lowly race like humans..."

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Ming suddenly flashed behind her, placing the Blue Flame Sword against her neck, and said coldly, "I'm only here to help, so I don't care about the lives of you Dark Elves. If you want to fight the wandering spirits yourselves, that's your business. But before we leave your country, which is afflicted by the curse of the undead, you and your compatriots had better show some respect to us Miracaissa people! Otherwise, I'll show you what a further curse is! Also, apologize to me now!"

"I...I...I'm sorry...I...I was wrong, please forgive me..." The aura emanating from Liu Ming, and the chilling power of the Blue Flame Sword held to his neck, terrified Merlin, the Shadow Dragon King's priest, to the point of wetting himself. Furthermore, in order to survive, Merlin offered a deeply humiliating apology to Liu Ming...

Thus, Liu Ming sheathed the Blue Flame Sword, snorted coldly, and returned to his wife Chimera's side.

"You've gone a bit too far! She's my distant cousin!" Watching Merlin, who had wet her pants from being scared by Liu Ming, being helped back into the church temple by soldiers, Qi Mei tugged at Liu Ming's sleeve and said in a slightly reproachful voice.

"She was targeting me and even insulted me. I'm already being lenient by not hitting her directly. Besides, you didn't tell me she was your distant cousin!" Liu Ming said in a low voice.

"Is that so? Oh well, I don't really get along with her anyway, and she's from far away. I might as well have bullied her. What can I do? She insulted my favorite husband!"

"..."

Chapter 10 - The High Priest

Perhaps Lu Ming was too domineering. When the high priest sent a priest to invite Lu Ming and Qi Mei inside, many priests and officials glared at him angrily.

Although Lu Ming didn't care about the prejudice these seemingly mindless priests might have against him, he didn't want the Chimera to be treated like that by her fellow humans. So, in the Dark Elf church temple, Lu Ming tried his best to act according to the Dark Elf etiquette and not cause any trouble for the Chimera.

It was precisely because of this approach that many priests and officials who were not the Shadow Dragon King gradually felt that it was the Shadow Dragon King's officials who were being unreasonable, which made Lu Ming angry and retaliate, and it was not the fault of Lu Ming, who was able to help them defeat the Spider Queen and the Poison God, or those treacherous officials.

"The High Priest is inside the room. Please be careful not to anger him. Otherwise, you will die a terrible death!" Outside a rather luxurious room, a priest of the Dark Elf race warned Lu Ming before opening the door and letting him in.

As Lu Ming entered the room where the High Priest was with Chimera, he soon smelled a hallucinogenic incense.

He glanced discreetly at the chimera beside him and, seeing that she was completely unharmed, he knew that this kind of incense, usually used for aphrodisiacs, had no effect on female Dark Elves.

'Does he want to test my skills or is he simply unaware of the effects of this incense?' With this question in mind, Lu Ming met the High Priest of the Dark Elves in the capital city of Loki, who was equivalent to the Archbishop of the Church of Light.

This was a bewitching female Dark Elf who appeared to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, but was actually nearly three hundred years old. Her holy robes, languid posture, and the effect of the incense made this high priestess incredibly charming. If it weren't for the blazing fire within Lu Ming, which burned away all the incense's effects, it would have been fatal.

"High Priest, I am Count Lu Ming, the Sword-Biting Wolf, from the Kingdom of Miracaissa. I have come to your country at the invitation of Her Majesty the Queen to help you escape the shadow of the Undead Curse! The reason I have come to see you is to request that your church entrust its troops to us for training, so that we can deal with the undead on the side of the wandering spirits and rebels." Ignoring the High Priest's alluringly languid appearance as he lay on the sofa, Lu Ming went straight to the point, speaking with remarkable composure.

Upon hearing this, the High Priest paused for a moment, then hurriedly got up from the sofa, ran to the incense burner, threw a few pieces of incense into the small incense burner, and occasionally turned around to check on Lu Ming's reaction.

Seeing the High Priest's actions, Lu Ming's veins nearly bulged. Her purpose in doing this was to bewitch him with incense, hoping to bring more benefits to the Dark Elf's Shadow Church while he was under its spell.

"Don't be angry, she's a high priest..." Chimera tugged at Lu Ming's sleeve, somewhat embarrassed, and whispered to persuade him.

However, even though she was also a Dark Elf, she couldn't help but feel somewhat dissatisfied with the High Priest's attempt to seduce her husband.

Perhaps the scent of incense was too strong at the end, causing her to start coughing. The high priest then abandoned this foolish and ineffective method of using incense and summoned a priest to remove the incense burner that had been filled with too much incense.

Just when Lu Ming and Chimera thought they could get down to business, Lu Ming suddenly saw the High Priest bring out a bottle of wine and two glasses, pouring a small half-glass for both of them...

Looking at his own glass of red wine, which was bubbling away, and then at the High Priest's very ordinary glass of red wine, Lu Ming was truly speechless.

How can the drugging be so obvious? Even when Chimera drugged me, it was worse than this!

Perhaps seeing that the Chimera instinctively clung tightly to Lu Ming's arm, and realizing that her plan had been discovered, the High Priest immediately picked up his wine glass and said to Lu Ming, "Count, we, the Shadow Church, will do our utmost to fulfill your request! After all, our reputation has been severely damaged because we cannot lift the curse of the undead. Helping you is also helping ourselves! So, let's drink to our common goal!"

"Cheers." Knowing that if he didn't drink this cup of wine, the High Priest might not let the two of them leave, nor would he agree to hand over the army to them for training, Lu Ming had no choice but to down the bubbling wine, which clearly contained some kind of bad stuff.

"Very well! Earl Lu Ming is so generous! Now, let's begin discussing the army training in a couple of days!"

"Oh, okay..."

The high priest, who was extremely confident in the drug she had put in the wine, forcibly stalled for time with a barrage of questions, waiting for the drug to take effect. However, after nearly two hours, she still saw no abnormality in Lu Ming. Gradually, she began to get annoyed and started to inexplicably lash out at Lu Ming, the chimera, and the priests and officials who came in to check on the situation.

In the end, Lu Ming had no choice but to take the chimera and leave first, so that the priests could see if they could persuade the high priest, since they couldn't stand the high priest setting fires for no reason either.

"What's going on here! Honestly!" Stepping out of the Shadow Church's temple gates and standing on the street, Lu Ming glanced back at the temple with such an unreliable high priest and said somewhat angrily.

Clinging to Lu Ming's arm, Chimera asked him with some concern, "Are you alright? She drugged the drink..."

"It's alright, but you might have a bit of a hard time getting back to the temporary residence," Lu Ming sighed slightly before speaking to Chimera.

"..." Upon hearing this, and seeing Lu Ming's hand intentionally or unintentionally stroking her body, Chimera blushed and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Lu Ming didn't hesitate to leave with his beautiful wife, Chimera. After returning to the mansion that the Dark Elf nobles had assigned him as a temporary residence, he locked the door, picked up Chimera, and began tearing at her clothes on the sofa...
